       If you live in the United States,the law says you can't have a full-time

job until you are 16 years old. At 14 or 15,you can work part-time after

school or on weekends,and during summer you can work 40 hours each

week. Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you can't earn

( 赚) your own money? Of course not!  Kids who are between the ages of

10 and 13 can earn   money by doing lots of things.

       Valerie ,11 ,told us that she made money by cleaning up other people's

 yards. Lena,13,makes money by knitting( 织) dog sweaters and selling

them to her neighbors,and Reisa said she had started taking art classes

and showing her work to people. People have asked her todraw pictures

for them and they pay her for them. Jasmine,13,writes articles for different

magazines !

          Earning is leaming. By working to eam your own money,you are

learning the skills you will need to succeed in life. These skills can include

things likegetting along with others,using technology and using your time.

Some peoplethink that asking for money is a lot easier than eaming it;

however,when you make your own money,you don't have to depend on

someone else. The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel

a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.
